Recruiting Is A Crap Shoot

I know its about UF's players, but reading this really brings home how much a roll of the dice recruiting really is. We have our share of guys that were 5 star players never do a thing so UF's list isnt that surprising. What I thought was telling is the number of highly recruited guys UF had that showed up out of shape and didnt want to work for it. Biggest problem with the high school stars is that they usually have not had to work until they get to the next level.

I would say that life is a crap shoot as well. No one knows what roads lie ahead. Wouldn't you agree?

I think that its interesting how many highly rated guys on the Dline dont pan out.

Yes, you can check their stats but you can never guess their heart.

Good Dlinemen are hard to come by. A lot of them seem to be lazy and that is the reason they don't pan out.

I think that with dline guys, so many are able to just physically overwhelm someone at the high school level that they arent prepared for the work that is necessary when everyone is the same size.

What I think is a crap shoot is whether or not rexvol will post something pertaining to the Vols or UF......
